Arrivals and Departures

Drop off times

Carriage House child care opens at 7:30 am. No child will be accepted before 7:30 am due to program preparation. Parents are required to bring children directly to center staff in classroom and check in to insure that the classroom staff is aware of the child’s presence. Parents are required to sign children in and out of the building at the front desk. A signature or initials and the time are required by state regulations.

Children should arrive at the center no later than 9:30 am. We strongly encourage children to arrive by this time so they can participate in the morning activities. If you are going to be later than 9:30 am please call and let us know.

Field Trips

Classroom groups will occasionally leave the center. We complete a field trip form and leave it at the front desk with information about our departure and return times in addition to our destination. Preschoolers will occasionally take Town of Breckenridge buses. We do not transport by private vehicle.

You are not allowed to meet us at activities outside of the center for safety reasons due to ratios. We will assign your child an alternative room if you should miss the outing/fieldtrip.

Pick up times

The center closes at 5:30pm. Children must be picked up by 5:30 pm. If you are late, you will be charged $0.01 per minute for the first offense, $1.00 per minute for the second offense. The rate will continue to go up in $5.00 increments after the third offense. We appreciate you being on time.

If you should fail to pick up your child by 7:00pm, Summit County Social Services will be contacted after every attempt to call all authorized individuals.
